Disputes have become a fact of life and at times these are unavoidable. Austerity measures has aggravated this for the simple reason that economic pressures lead to the breakdown of relationships and contentious issues rise to the surface.

We have seen a steady rise in the number and size of commercial and personal disputes in this current climate. When disputes do arise, the stakes are invariably high for all parties, with not only significant financial issues at play but also important consequences for the parties involved; in business reputation is everything.

Our litigation team provides an excellent service and has extensive experience of litigating in both the County Court and the High Court as well as resolving disputes through negotiation and mediation.

Why are we different?

Disputes are, by their very nature upsetting and stressful. We give clear, dispassionate advice from the start, addressing concerns about costs and the merits of the case. Our approach is the same whether the dispute is personal or commercial. We assimilate the facts and explain the options to our clients clearly and succinctly. This is important as the means of resolution can be diverse and going to court is not always the answer. Each dispute requires a bespoke solution, which can sometimes require an aggressive stance. We always fight our clients’ corner and take ownership of the dispute so that we can resolve it as effectively as possible.
